For us, Jimmy Kimmel presenting paintings on ABC’s telecast of the 96th Annual Academy Awards was a match. The opening monologue included overly safe jokes mixed with random topics, such as mentioning Robert Downey Jr. ‘s problems beyond drugs. But the show, whether leading presenters in a category or hosting between categories, Kimmel seemed much more into his game. In fact, Kimmel and John Cena teamed up for what may have been one of the most productive moments of the night. Another moment he painted came just before Kimmel announced that Al Pacino would present the “Best Picture” award. With about a minute left, Kimmel read what multiple-impeached former Truth TV host and former US President Donald Trump had to say about Kimmel’s hosting skills on his social media site. After reading the message to the audience and jokingly asking them to guess which former president had written this message, Kimmel delivered the most productive reaction possible: “Isn’t his criminal sentence over?” (clearly alluding to Trump’s current legal problems). Speaking to Live with Kelly and Mark’s Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos today, Kimmel revealed that not everyone was okay with him doing this.
While the exhibit had a little more time to play before revealing the biggest prize of the night, Kimmel shared that by reading Trump’s message, everything he improvised and everything he asked not to do. “They say, ‘You’ve been given some time,’ and I said, ‘I’m reading Trump’s tweet,’ and they said, ‘No, no, don’t read that. ‘[Like] ‘Yes, I am,'” Kimmel shared with the duo, without going into detail about who tried to deprive us of this special moment.
